| I don't know. I've never felt incomplete, so I can't relate to the need for an "other half". Trapped, unhappy, repressed, confused, aimless, out of touch... never incomplete. I can't imagine what parts emotionally or spiritually that I was born without in order to have been born incomplete. Yet it s... |

| Not currently, no. The closest I've had to a real social group was in middle school and high school, but only two of them were my friends and the rest were friends of friends or people who shared our table at lunch. Everyone was weird then, so I didn't stand out as much as I did elsewhere. Friends a... |

I often put things away wrong in the kitchen or pour something in the wrong container if I'm not paying attention.
Recently I brought out the milk and had a glass while I was getting the coffeemaker ready, and I almost poured in milk instead of water. |

| I can work and want to, and I'm not "taking jobs away from people who need them". I need money as much as anyone else, and I have a right to any money I can honestly earn. The process of searching sucks for everyone, and many people experience conflict and stress in the workplace. If someone's sensi... |

| With very few exceptions, Vitamin supplements do exactly what they are designed to do -- transfer the money of those who buy them into the pockets of those who sell them. One exception would be supplements for vegetarians who are less likely to get enough vitamins by rejecting meat. That is especia... |
